He made his position known while addressing leaders of Nkanu East Consultative Forum led by the former minister of power, Prof Barth Nnaji who paid him a visit in his Amechi Awkunanaw country home in Enugu, recently.
Professor Nnaji had sought the support of Senator Ken Nnamani in the quest for Nkanu East to have the total support of other council areas in Enugu East senatorial district and beyond to produce the candidate for governor based on zoning. Nnaji had noted that apart from the fact that some other council areas in the zone have had a shot at the gubernatorial position, “Nkanu East is a very neglected area of Nkanu land without a single all-season road or government presence .”He said the need for a good road network was acute, so much so that the greater majority of the council area has to detour through five other local government areas before accessing their council headquarters at Amagunze.
He observed that whereas the area is brimming with solid minerals and agricultural potentialities lying unexploited due to road problems, all it would take to easily address the problem is to put a bridge across the Idodo River and connect the vast areas with good roads. “We have sons who are well qualified to advance the interest of Enugu State. We are not asking to make any of them governor in order to help just our own localities; all we are hoping for is that if our son becomes governor, some of the winds of development that he initiates in the state will also blow in our area. This will end our marginalized condition and give us a sense of belonging.

Victor Chukwu, has said. Perhaps, because they see the South-East as the Region of politically conquered, caged and controlled second class citizens living in Nigeria. In as much as many are clamouring for an Igbo President, it is also not a birthright. We all want good leadership regardless of the region, tribe, or state Its a pity 🙁
